Assisting Hands Home Care is a provider of in-home health care services for senior citizens and disabled adults that serves Naperville, IL and the surrounding western Chicago suburbs. The owners of Assisting Hands Home Care, Richard and Jennifer Ueberfluss, were recently interviewed and featured in an article by the Naperville Sun, a subsidiary of the Chicago Tribune. In this article, the owners talk about their services, how they got into the business, and what their plans are for their future in the Chicago area.

The mission of Assisting Hands Home Care is to help senior citizens and adults with disabilities live in their own homes by providing them with the daily care they need to make this possible. Richard and Jennifer Ueberfluss both worked as physical therapists previously and noticed that many of their returning patients were coming back due to falls or not taking their medications properly. Richard Ueberfluss cites this as the motivation for starting Assisting Hands Home Care, to help people avoid these preventative things that will send them back to physical therapy or the hospital. The owners also mention medication support as their most crucial service for this reason.

Richard and Jennifer Ueberfluss take pride in the work that they and their caregivers do to help those in the community that need care. Richard says that the best part of the business is “knowing that I’m helping people and that I’m connecting with the community – social workers, nurses and doctors, and people in the community.” He also states that the business is “very much about integrity and building trust with the community and your clients.” The Ueberflusses already own eight Assisting Hands franchises in the Chicago area and they are looking to expand in more areas throughout the Chicago suburbs.
